Observation of near-infrared sub-Poissonian photon emission in hexagonal boron nitride at room temperature

The generation of non-classical light states in the near-infrared (NIR) is important for a number of photonic quantum technologies. Here, we report the first experimental observation of sub-Poissonian NIR (1.24 eV) light emission from defects in a 2D hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) sheet at room tempe...
